You'll like it! I've been using this keyboard for a few months now, and it's really nice. I especially like that I can make it dark and spare my retinas a bit; it's highly customizable. I would LOVE to see accented letters available in the long-press options without changing the input language (helpful to those of us who frequently use foreign words).

Excellent! This is excellent! Much better than default keyboard. Easily add words to the dictionary and change words if misspelt. Is there any way you could make the emojis so they aren't classed as mms when sent by text?? 😞 This would make it even better! Keyboard sometimes a bit slow to respond but doesn't happen that often. 😊

Yes, best keyboard around... which backs up his claim. Has everything needed plus arrows and other small things like nice skins... the only thing I'd like to see is a true "delete" key, not just a "backspace". Then yes gets 5 stars.

Still the best, now for Android L With all auto features disabled, this one beats any other keyboard thanks to its calibration feature. I have tried Swiftkey, Fleksy, but still return to this. Also, swipe gesture is now much improved. Thanks dev.

I Got this for my seven inch Polaroid AS7 Google updated to Google keyboard and hid my stock keyboard. I discovered I had serious issues with the Google Keyboard. I got the stock keyboard back by uninstalling the Google keyboard update and turning auto-update off on Google keyboard off. I decideded to search the Play Store for a third party keyboard. At first I settled on Hackers keyboard. I decided it was more for larger devices so I tried Smart keyboard trial and eventually went to the Pro version. The new numbers across the top option is useful. The user dictionary is accessed through settings. Long hold ?123 to get to Settings, select Text prediction, then User dictionary. Add and/or delete words. The keyboard will include the new words and stop suggesting what was taken out.

Annoying I don't know what's the hype about this keyboard .one thing annoy me that is the question mark can't be put together with the punctuation.Also the prediction really lacks behind swiftkey which is far more accurate and neater prediction bar. Sorry but going back to swiftkey .

Favorite Keyboard App aside from: Smart Keyboard Pro is a great keyboard app. However, after issues with Lollipop I discovered they were cause in association with Google Hangouts and Textra. Hangouts is a Lollipop issue. Textra , I'm not sure. Also, if you're looking for accents on the English keyboard, select the International variant. Has an emoji keyboard as well.

Please... Awesome, amazing app. Can't live without autotext. Wish the keyboard had all those little symbols and emoticons like iPhone and other Android keyboards. Also wish it would backup my settings, especially autotext shortcuts, with Google. That way I wouldn't have to reprogram literally hundreds of shortcuts every time I change devices. ALSO...please add the option to change the microphone key to a comma key.

problems with this keyboard that need fixed This is would be my preferred keyboard but it has problems. For some reason smart keyboard uses its own voice recognition for speech to text which does not work offline unlike google's voice typing or "speech to text" and this can't be changed. Also bluetooth keyboards do not work properly with smart keyboard pro...shift button does not work on number keys and some others and neither does caps lock or other buttons on a hard keyboard. Please fix. Using perfect keyboard because of these problems.

Difficulty with speech recognition Specifically if smart keyboard pro is the default input and speech recognition is invoked the okay google widget stops working until reboot or smart keyboard is deselected as default input. In google maps if smart keyboard speech recognition is used the application does not recognize voice input and the native google mic at the top of the screen does not work when invoked.

Ignoring You are not reading and updating functionalities that we sugest. Im allready looking for an alternative app. It seems like you dont care about us. I have the same bugs for 2 years allready and u did not see my post or fix it.

Good t9 keyboard, with issue for those who frequently swap languages. My favorite keyboard. One annoying issue is that on the Norwegian t9 keyboard, pressing the abc-button gives an "a", but should result in "å" (and) for that single letter word. Similarly the ghi-button gives a "g", but should result in "i" (in) single letter word. Either implement this by default (best) and/or add the feature to specify language in Text prediction &gt; Custom AutoText as the needs of Norwegian conflict with English (best with current default "a" and capital "i").

Best keyboard! Use 4 years. Sometimes, when I use Samsung stock keyboard and when I type in numberic field samsung keyboard change mode from ABC to 123 automaticly. It's convinient. Do you can make the same?

Could not live without! So on a smaller keyboard the T9 keyboard is a lifesaver. So much easier to type one handed than full QWERTY. Suggestions are decent & text entry reliable. Best keyboard I've found. Still using on a bigger screen after many years of use on mini screens & always cone back to this as the most usable keyboard on the market.

Great APP Great APP. I have been using it for years, however, for some reason when I change device it won't Import custom text from micro SD. Have to start from scratch. I contacted developer but never heard anything back

Emoji not working on GS5 Emoji recently not working in portrait mode on GS5, when I press the smiley it doesn't do anything. But when I switch to landscape it works don"t know if i did something. Need help.

Best keyboard I found so far This is by far the best keyboard I found so far. I just wished there were layouts with more keys (e.g. German ß, more punctuation chars) for Tablets, and layouts which more closely resemble physical keyboard layouts, in regard to key placement.

Can I suggest a feature Colorful emoji and emoji predictions use a plugin too much hassle to switch languages keyboard needs to be smarter like not learning words that are not actually words keyboard I'd lacking where others are not use flesky for an example

Like it I would have given this 5 stars as it's the best keyboard I have found. I use the T9 all the time but my left thumb keeps hitting the T9 button and turning it off, would have been great if you could hide it on the keypad.

Hello, indeed there is TM symbol but you can get it with one of the 2 following methods:
1) copy the TM symbol from somewhere (web site for instance), and paste it in a Custom AutoText (for instance the text "tm" can be replaced automatically by this symbol)
2) use the Smiley Editor to have the symbol in the smiley panel (long press on Enter key)
